"It is not difficult to open a space gate, it is rare to maintain it. If you want to achieve the purpose of teleporting the army through it, at least we must keep sending magic power continuously. That is meaningless."

"I know a formation that can continuously gather magic power. As long as it is not destroyed, it can continue to take effect. But that is something of another magic system. If the two are to be integrated, further research is needed."

"Then let's start quickly. We don't have time to waste it."

Although it was an idea proposed by Lin Xuan, Medivh has now dominated the entire research. Lin Xuan and Kadega have become his assistants.

"Kadja, there's something I want to ask you."

"Of course, please say it." Kadega already regarded Lin Xuan as an elder like Medivh.

"Do you remember the young mage named Kel Thuzad that I asked you before? Can you tell me about his recent situation?"

"Of course, I'm about to tell you something. According to some of my friends, there seems to be something wrong with Kel Thuzad?"

“What’s the problem?”

"It seems to be starting to focus on some spells involving life, soul and the like. This means he might be on that path to no return."

"The way to no return?"

"Yes, that's what Kenreto said. It means that a mage is obsessed with the study of eternal life. You should know that in Kenreto's records, all mages who try to live in eternal life will either fall into darkness or become madmen. Even Egwen, the guardian of the previous generation, uses his powerful magic power to forcibly maintain his life. Eternal life is the right of the gods. Mortals cannot peek."

"Haha, if you don't say it, I really don't know that Kenreto's view of immortality is like this. It's beyond my expectations, but I have some different views."

Kardag organized his body with a serious face. Eternal life can be said to be an eternal pursuit, so before Lin Xuan spoke, Kardag was ready to hear the amazing theory. Even Medivh, who was addicted to the portal, came over without knowing when, and clearly seemed to join the discussion. For a moment, the style of Heat's long-lasting painting turned into a life seminar.

Lin Xuan was stunned for a moment, then smiled helplessly. It seemed that he would not be able to get through without throwing some real people. He cleared his throat and spoke.

"First of all, eternal life is definitely not the right of the gods. He is not the right of anyone. If it is really about the issue of belonging, he is the right of the strong. Life is a somewhat abstract concept. What exactly is life? A person's body is alive but has no consciousness at all. Can he say that he has life? Or if a person dies but his soul is still there, what is that?"

Medivh and Kardgar did not speak because they knew that Lin Xuan would explain in the next time.

"The meaning of life is different in different people, cultures, and belief systems. Therefore, we cannot simply define life. But for magicians, a large part of our definition of life is to maintain healthy survival. Because all our behaviors cannot bypass the constraints of the body. The aging of Suzi and Ou bodies, we become dull and forgetful, and cannot perform the powerful magic smoothly. We can only wait for the arrival of death. Unless we choose to abandon the **, it is really a painful choice."

"It is true. There is a way in dark magic to abandon the body and obtain immortality. The theory in it has a sense of homology with what you said. But basically no one will use it."

"You are talking about lich. It's really not interesting to live without all senses and only one consciousness. I once came into contact with a special spell in a certain world. There was a rumor about alchemy in that world."

"Eternal Alchemy?"

"It's almost the same as that, it's an alchemy based on a concept of immortality. They try to synthesize vitality using alchemy."

"vitality?"

"It's the one you think, very abstract and difficult to describe in words. Some dark magic will consume vitality when used. Too much consumption will make people old. They realize their vitality based on this phenomenon and try to synthesize it manually."

"Success?"

"It can be said to be successful, but it can also be said to be unsuccessful."

"They eventually synthesized a philosopher's stone. It has a high purity of vitality that has a ready-made entity. In theory, just soak it in water and drink it, you can replenish your vitality."

"What are the side effects?" Medivh was more sophisticated. He knew that there was something else to say when he heard it.

"Like the lich, the mage began to gradually lose senses. The sense of smell, taste, and even hearing and vision began to lose constantly."

“Is there something wrong?”

"This is the most incomprehensible thing. There was no error in the experiment. They perfectly synthesized vitality without error in every aspect. The vitality was proven, but this side effect still occurred. I have an idea about it. The following is my personal analysis."

"Tell me," Medivh already had quite some interest.

"I think the side effect is because they do it perfectly. They synthesize perfect vitality. But what the human body needs may not be perfect."

"I probably understand what you mean?" As an old man, Maddie quickly understood what Lin Xuan meant.

"What?" Kardga was still confused.

"In an ancient country in a certain world, there was a proverb that water would be clear and there would be no fish. It means that things that are too pure are not suitable for life. After all, life itself is infinitely complex."

Kardga nodded in a slight way.

"Since you have raised this question, you have a solution, right?"

“It can be said that solving this problem is infinitely simple, but it is infinitely difficult.”

"What you are talking about is directly extracting the vitality of others? That is the evil dark magic." Kardga suddenly realized.

"That's why I said it's infinite difficulty. Because in any world, this method will inevitably not be accepted. Even my only little conscience makes me unable to do this. So I try to replenish my vitality."

"You mean to find the missing things and then replenish them in pure vitality."
